DJ posted about BYU signing Motekiai Langi, a 410 lb, 6' 7" prospect out of Tonga who likely wont play until the 2017 season as he is going to do a mission trip, common for BYU.
By now you're thinking, yea so what. Well, the kid has only participated in football camps. Has not actually played a competition down.
The most intriguing news out of signing day—at least for those who find tracking every tiny movement a bit weird—was that a 6'7", 410 pound manchild signed a letter of intent to play football at BYU. The problem was, nobody knew jack shit about Motekiai Langi. No grainy highlight reel, no photos of him in a football uniform, no profile on a recruiting website. Nothing.
But there was a good reason for that: apparently his own future head coach has only spent 15 minutes with him, and he was recruited because a BYU assistant coach thought he was light on his feet during a game of pickup basketball two years ago.
